✅ What's Allowed
All EAs/Indicators Permitted
Martingale, grid, arbitrage, custom scripts – all welcome!

• Your Version: TP=42, SL=18 + volatility filter
🚫 Strictly Prohibited
These market-abusive strategies are banned:

High-Frequency Trading (HFT) | <3ms trade durations | ❌ 500 trades/second EA |

Asset Selection
Trade different instruments than EA defaults
